* For the supporting cast/allies go to [[Pokémon Special (Manga)/Characters/Supporting Cast|Characters]]
* For the enemies/villainous teams, go to [[Pokémon Special (Manga)/Characters/Enemies|Characters]].
 
== Red ==
Line 17:
* [[Character Development]]: Goes from being an [[Idiot Hero]] to a slightly [[Hot-Blooded]] [[The Ace|ace]].
* [[Cute Shotaro Boy]]: Remains as wide-eyed as ever even at age 16.
* [[Dressing Asas the Enemy]]: He disguised himself as a TR grunt to get some info.
* [[Fingerless Gloves]]: Finds a pair which are supposedly [[Fridge Logic|electric insulated]] in Silph Co. {{spoiler|after defeating Lt Surge}}.
* [[Flung Clothing]]: Blue pulled off the TR disguise mentioned above. Red was also pretty much stripped over the course of FRLG.
Line 54:
* [[Taken for Granite]]: He was the only dex holder out of uniform and not holding the Pokédex, which pretty much ruins their guise of being real statues.
* [[Take Up My Sword]]: After Red disappeared, Yellow used his Pikachu and Pokédex.
* [[Taking You Withwith Me]]: In FRLG, {{spoiler|at the end of the Mewtwo vs. Deoxys battle, while Deoxys was grabbing Red, Red insisted that Mewtwo fire the final shot even though he knew that the attack might literally go through him.}}
* [[We Can Rule Together]]: Twice offered to Red from {{spoiler|Giovanni in RGB and The Elite Four in Yellow saga.}}
** Also, the above offers resulted in the [[Pick Onon Someone Your Own Size]] trope.
* [[Worf Had the Flu]]: Still in bad shape after being frozen by Lorelei, Red has to step down from the Viridian Gym leader's position, and, consequently, was out of action for most of GSC in order to recuperate.
 
Line 66:
* [[Bare-Fisted Monk]]: Secondary type.
* [[Making a Splash]]: Primary type.
* [[Kill It Withwith Ice]]: Knows Ice Beam.
 
=== '''Saur (Fusshi)''' ===
Line 103:
* [[Elemental Powers]]: Due to his former ability to evolve between multiple forms and back, he had a variety of these.
** [[Making a Splash]]: As a Vaporeon.
** [[Playing Withwith Fire]]: As a Flareon.
** [[Psychic Powers]]: As an Espeon.
** [[Shock and Awe]]: As a Jolteon.
Line 152:
** Actually in the RBG arc he's shown easily deflecting Red's attacks, and in the GSC arc he's shown fighting with some of the possessed [[Mooks]] in a couple of panels. His skills in fighting are hardly ever brought up anyway so it's not really a straight example.
* [[Invisible Parents]]: At least, he has his grandfather and sister...
** Leading to a case of [[Raised Byby Grandparents]].
* [[Jerkass]] [[Character Development|to]] [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: Very much so in the RGB arc.
* [[The Lancer]]
* [[Personality Swap]]: Red and Green's Pokémon in RGB arc.
* [[The Rival]]: To Red in the first saga. He is actually the straightest one among all the rivals.
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: If he ''doesn't'' ship Bill with his sister, he is at least fine with it.
* [[The Stoic]]: He's generally the most down to earth of the Dex Holders, except when his [[Berserk Button|grandfather is in danger]]...
* [[Taken for Granite]]

* [[Giant Flyer]]
 
Line 221:
* [[Classy Cat Burglar]]
* [[Cool Big Sis]]: To Silver and sometimes Yellow.
* [[Crazy Prepared]]: Blue' battles are made of this trope. Sabrina can come after you with hallucinations of your past? [[Distracted Byby the Sexy|No]] [[Victoria's Secret Compartment|Problem]]. Lorelei's capable of freezing people? [[Artificial Limbs|Alreadly thought of]]. Up against your childhood trauma? [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|Well~]]
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]: Her and Silver's backstory in the GSC saga.
* [[Dub Name Change]]: Her and Green's names were switched in the English translation.
* [[Dressing Asas the Enemy]] : As Sabrina in the RGB series.
* [[Guile Hero|Guile Heroine]]: Once she's unquestionably become one of the good guys.
* [[Fille Fatale]]: She uses her sex appeal to get what she wants. She flirted with Red and stole his stuff when they first met...however, upon growing up, she didn't become a [[Femme Fatale]].
* [[Four-Temperament Ensemble]]: Phlegmatic with a dash of Melancholic.
* [[Gambit Roulette]]: Against Lorelei.
* [[Jerkass]] [[Character Development|to]] [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: Like Green, in the RGB arc.
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: invoked with her team, which she refrained from evolving until the FRLG saga, allegedly to lull her opponents into a sense of security.
* [[Little Black Dress]]: In the Kanto and Johto arcs.

* [[Flight]]: Ironically, the Butterfree species cannot learn Fly.
Line 415:
* [[Chivalrous Pervert]]: Regularly hits on a pretty girl. [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|And Bugsy.]]
* [[Determinator]]: Losing battles and almost his own life practically five times to the [[Big Bad]]? Does not care!
* [[Dressing Asas the Enemy]]: and...
** [[Flung Clothing]]: {{spoiler|Happened when he wore and ditched the Guile armor disguise in the Emerald saga.}}
* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Duh...
Line 428:
** [[Gambit Roulette]]: {{spoiler|In the Emerald chapter, against Guile. From an ''[[Indy Ploy]]''.}}
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: He is ''very'' good with a Pool Cue.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: [[Not So Different]] from his rival in this respect, but he usually means well and just wants to show off.
* [[The Leader]]: Type III of the Johto Dex holders.
* [[The McCoy]]
Line 445:
One of the Pokemon that lived in Gold's home. He was originally the first and only Gold took on his journey until Gold realized he lost (and later retrieved) Polibo. Started out as an Aipom and later evolved when it learned Double Hit.

Line 505:
{{quote| ''"No matter how much I yearn to be part of the light, darkness keeps dragging me back in."''}}
[[File:Silver_Adventures.png|frame]]
The second hero and [[The Lancer]] of the GSC saga. He's an [[Anti-Hero]] and works in ways that aren't always very favorable. Has a [[Dark and Troubled Past|secret, dark past]], but is usually just a [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]. His first Pokémon is a Sneasel and his starter is a Totodile which he stole from the lab.
----
* [[Anti-Hero]]: Type IV at first, develops into Type II overtime.
Line 520:
{{quote| '''Gold''' (thinking in shock): It took me two months to learn that move!}}
** Let's be fair with Gold, though: {{spoiler|Silver reveals that he has been aware all the time he was petrified, and Gold pretty much handed him the bracelet then.}}
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: He starts out as one, in contrast to his game counterpart, who was a [[Jerkass]] who developed into this.
